So.... first baby 🤞🏼🙏🏽🤞🏼🙏🏽 Meant to be ovulating tomorrow. Main challenge atm is keeping things fun with the husband and not making him feel like a baby making machine 😂 How’s it going for other hopeful first time mummy’s?

@FlapJackered I have been waking early especially since Saturday. And I had really vivid dreams Friday night and then (accidental sofa) nap on Saturday. Crazy dreams.

And my boobs are a bit 'full' (unusual for me I don't notice any fluctuations normally)

FlapJackered · 18/06/2018 11:03

Ahh so exciting! Fx'd it gets darker for you! I'm 9dpo too! But think I am going to wait until Thursday to test as pretty sure it's negative so I am going to delay the bad news!
Have you had any symptoms?

hamandpease · 18/06/2018 10:58

@FlapJackered

9dpo today

Been up since 4.30 am as there was no way I was going to go back to sleep after that 😂

Just hoping it's darker tomorrow morning

FlapJackered · 18/06/2018 10:31

*dpo

FlapJackered · 18/06/2018 10:31

@hamandpease I can definitely see a line! Tentative congratulations! What do I are you?

hamandpease · 18/06/2018 07:43

It's definitely there I just don't really know what to do now aside from waiting to check it gets darker tomorrow

LuckyKitty13 · 18/06/2018 07:40

Yes I think I see a faint line!

hamandpease · 18/06/2018 06:54

Dumped the pot before I could also use a FRER *

Sorry was a rather jumbled initial message...

WaitingForThatBFP · 18/06/2018 06:34

@hamandplease I see something!! Fx for tomorrow x

Thanks all x

hamandpease · 18/06/2018 05:33

I wouldn't believe me if I saw these photos it's so fuzzy compared to the one in my hand, even DH saw it straight away! 😂

LuckyKitty13 · 17/06/2018 18:15

Wow amazing! Congratulations! How super exciting!

I'm CD12, still not a sniff of a line at all on the ov sticks. DTD anyway though!

FlapJackered · 17/06/2018 17:40

AMAZING! CONGRATULATIONS!! So happy for you and so nice to see one of our group graduating!

hamandpease · 17/06/2018 16:41

YEYYYYYYY CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

🍰🍰🍰🍰🍾

WaitingForThatBFP · 17/06/2018 16:29

Okay so I caved and tested 🙊🙈🙈

And it was a BFP. 🙊🙌🏻🙌🏻

I don’t even know how far I am as my cycle is so messed.. made an appt to see the doctor tomorrow

hamandpease · 17/06/2018 16:22

CD100! Good luck XX

So I wasn't miffed I tested negative 5/6/7dpo but not a smidge at 8dpo is a bit Sad

WaitingForThatBFP · 17/06/2018 11:49

So today is CD 100 😬😬
thinking about testing later today not expecting much from it tho 🙊

How’s things with everyone else? X

hamandpease · 16/06/2018 22:43

@LuckyKitty13 yep I used that a few times last month but I've read a few things today suggesting whilst it's a safe lube it's not necessarily going to help as you might not put it in the right place 🤷🏼‍♀️

LuckyKitty13 · 16/06/2018 22:08

And I've had a glass of wine! Thanks all Smile

LuckyKitty13 · 16/06/2018 22:07

Thanks guys! It's been quite liberating to be off all contraception. Although since I've not ovulated yet it might have all been for nothing! Day off today as we've been unpacking and generally tired, then back on it tomorrow!
@hamandpease I think the preseed type lubricant is mean to mimic the correct cervical mucus? We've got Tesco's own 'fertility gel' to try this week.

hamandpease · 16/06/2018 22:02

I'm 99% sure I'm not this month although DH did point out I thought I might be last month and I wasn't so he said not to give up yet ...

Maybe tmi but I think I might be lacking in the right type of CM so I think I'm going to order this which has good reviews: https://www.amazon.com/FertileCM-for-Fertile-Cervical-Mucus/dp/B000GQSMOE?keywords=fertilecm&qid=1529182865&sr=8-2-spell&ref=mpssa112

I also read people use EPO but this can cause bleeding before ovulation and then delayed ovulation (?) so not keen
